I accidentally rented my queer awakening on VHS from the one-stop in 2002 and watched it with my mother. Please enjoy this humorous autobiographical essay about that experience.

On Accidentally Renting a Queer Awakening On VHS & Growing Up in Rural Maine:

I accidentally rented my queer awakening on VHS at the one-stop and watched it with my mother… …I was a stoic possum in a dumpster, praying not to be seen.

Red deer
Richmond Park
I once got within 10 paces of a massive red deer stag in the autumn. I knew it was dangerous to test his boundaries so I was watching his body language closely. Deer are very subtle when they're warning you. A slight head toss. A genteel hoof drag like an effete bull. A slight cough of annoyance. Had I not been paying attention I would have been in great danger. But I understood and gave him his space, and he kept browsing unbothered.
